We stayed at I-Sanook for 5 weeks, and didn't want to leave. In terms of the actual accommodations, the facilities at I-Sanook are clean and very comfortable. It is a new modern building surrounded by many older buildings. I would consider staying here again long term depending on the price we settled on. Joe (the property manager) attempted to work with me when I was considering a longer stay, and was overall very helpful in trying to accommodate me. At first the location is a little daunting, but after you get used to the neighborhood, you'll realize that it's actually quite convenient. There's lots of places to eat Thai food within walking distance and there is a tuk tuk that will take you to MBK until 5 PM. There's lots of security, and the exercise, pool, and movie room are all available 24 hours. The fact that the pool is available 24/7 is very nice because most condos close their pools at around 10:00 PM.

My only complaint is about the extra fees. My Thai friends were shocked by the electricity rate we were asked to pay (almost 26 baht per unit, the Thai rate is 10-15 baht). When I checked out, I had an additional bill of approximately 7000 baht which included electricity, cost of renting bed sheets and pillows for the room, and a room cleaning. This is a little more than half the monthly rate.
